86th Birthday Cake & Cupcakes

This cake and cupcakes were for a very special woman, Shirley.
Shirley is my brother's wife's grandmother and she turns 86 tomorrow.
Shirley's family threw her a surprise birthday party on Sunday to celebrate.

I had the honor of making a cake and some cupcakes for the occasion.

Lemon Cake with Cream Cheese Filling and Vanilla Swiss Meringue Buttercream.

Shirley loves Owls so I decided to make that the theme of the cake using homemade Marshmallow Fondant.

I made a dozen cupcakes to match the cake and filled them with the cream cheese filling.

Happy 86th Birthday Shirley!!!
